This course is designed to introduce the concepts of overall construction project management including scheduling, resource allocation, cost and technical constraints.

This course is an introduction to common building materials and construction methods including soils, aggregates, pipes, cement, concrete, asphalt, steel, wood masonry and residential and commercial building materials.

In this course, students explore the Gateway Technical College community. They examine college resources and services, investigate skills that lead to academic success, and identify strategies for achieving educational and personal goals.

This course is designed to provide the knowledge and skills required to create a CNC program that will convert stock material into a finished product on a Vertical Machining Center. The students will be capable of defining the list of required processes, their logical / optimum sequence, create the complete CNC part program, install the approopriate tools correctly, establish the program zero point, and perform corresponding tool offsets. This course is also an advanced hands-on study of Computer Aided Design/Computer Aided Manufacturing theory and applications using CAD/CAM software.

Reviews the four basic mathematical operations on whole numbers, fractions and decimals. Also covers basic algebra and trigonometry related to technical fields.

Students will produce and troubleshoot CNC mill set-ups from job packets and machine parts to blueprint specifications. Students will learn simple G and M codes, download programs to machines, graphically verify programs, and prove out parts on 3-axis machining centers using various CNC controllers. Set-ups will include face, end, and profile milling and drilling, slotting, boring, and tapping operations. Students will also learn to produce some simple tooling necessary to complete various set-ups.
